Specialty Stitches
I am ashamed to tell you this. I have had a really fancy sewing machine for over 30 years. You know, the ones that are capable of dozens of stitches. But I only use about 3 stitches on it. Are you like me? You spent, don’t tell me how much money on that machine....![Quilt Block Mania – July 2024](https://ml4coykpzwr1.i.optimole.com/cb:rZfo.27f86/w:1080/h:675/q:eco/f:best/ig:avif/https://tourmalinethymequilts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Garden-Books-by-Tourmaline-Thyme-Quilts.png)

Practice Makes Perfect Blocks
When you get a new pattern, do you just want to dive in and start cutting? (Unless it is a super beautiful fabric that you are just not sure you ever want to cut…) You are not alone. We can’t wait to get started. The excitement is building. And we want...![Quilt Block of the Month – Yummy Yucca!](https://ml4coykpzwr1.i.optimole.com/cb:rZfo.27f86/w:1080/h:675/q:eco/f:best/ig:avif/https://tourmalinethymequilts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/IMG_3104.jpeg)
Quilt Block of the Month – Yummy Yucca!
Seeing this in the wild definitely inspired me to make this happen! In June, a quilty friend of mine and I went for an excursion that took us to three National Parks. Along the way, we saw some amazing things, including these Yucca in bloom. Decided to be super...![Life Happens – Get Your Groove Back](https://ml4coykpzwr1.i.optimole.com/cb:rZfo.27f86/w:1080/h:675/q:eco/f:best/ig:avif/https://tourmalinethymequilts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/IMG_2566.jpeg)
Life Happens – Get Your Groove Back
If there is one thing you can count on, life will throw you a curve ball when you least expect it. The question is whether you can hit it or not. We all deal with life changes differently. The most important thing is how we cope with those changes. Most of you know...![Quilt Block Mania – June 2024](https://ml4coykpzwr1.i.optimole.com/cb:rZfo.27f86/w:1080/h:675/q:eco/f:best/ig:avif/https://tourmalinethymequilts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Edelweiss.jpg)

Need a Touch of Color – Crab Embellished
Did you ever pick a fabric but it just wasn’t quite right? Especially if you are working with art quilts? I have been there and done that. In April, I shared my Crab pattern as part of the Quilt Block Mania.
